Decision & conditions

Permit
H_26_101179 PL_Final Decision
Planning conditions
  1. The development hereby permitted shall start no later than three years from the date of this decision. Reason: To comply with Section 91 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990.
  2. The development hereby permitted shall be implemented in accordance with the following plans numbered: 1 - Existing and 1 Rev 3 - Proposed Reason: For the avoidance of doubt and in the interests of proper planning.
  3. The materials to be used in the construction of the external surfaces of the development hereby permitted shall match in type, colour and texture those used on the existing building. Reason: To ensure a satisfactory visual relationship between the new development and the existing.
  4. Note to applicant: Biodiversity enhancements will be required in accordance with Local Plan policy DM 11 and NPPF (December 2024) paragraphs 187d and 192 b. A bat box and a swift nest box may be appropriate for this building. The Bat Conservation Trust recommends installing a bat brick/box at least 4 m above the ground, away from artificial light sources, sheltered from strong winds and exposed to the sun for part of the day, facing south, south-east or south-west. (https://www.bats.org.uk › our-work › putting-up-your-box) Swift nest boxes are best positioned under the eaves or on walls facing north, northeast or north-west out of direct sunlight, five metres above the ground, with clear adjacent airspace so swifts can access them in a high-speed direct flight. (https://www.swiftconservation.org/Nestboxes%26Attraction.htm ) Additional information is available at: https://sussexwildlifetrust.org.uk/discover/in-your-garden/article/31, planting for bats https://www.wildaboutgardens.org.uk/sites/default/files/2022 03/WAG16%20Bats%20updated%202022%20WEB.pdf - Stars of the Night guide to attract bats into your garden https://www.rhs.org.uk/science/conservation-biodiversity/wildlife/plants-for-pollinators https://www.bats.org.uk/our-work/buildings-planning-and-development/bat-boxes https://www.hampshireswifts.co.uk/nesting https://www.rspb.org.uk/birds-and-wildlife/advice/how-you-can-help birds/nestboxes/nestboxes-for-small-birds/ https://www.swift-conservation.org/OurLeaflets.htm https://www.hedgehogstreet.org/help-hedgehogs/hedgehog-homes/ www.bats.org.uk/resources/guidance-for-professionals/landscape-and-urban-design-for bats-and-biodiversity https://ptes.org/my-garden/ https://www.ukbutterflies.co.uk/foodplants.php
  5. Note to applicant: Please note, surface water should not be disposed of into a public foul sewer and must comply with the Hierarchy of H3 of the Building Regulations. For more details, refer to the Drainage and Waste Disposal: Approved Document H on the GOV.UK website. Any new connections to the public sewerage system will require a New Sewer Connection application (also known as a Section 106) to be submitted and approved by Southern Water. It is possible that a sewer now deemed to be public could be crossing the development site. Therefore, should any sewer be found during construction work, an investigation of the sewer will be required to ascertain its ownership before any works commence on site. If this happens, please call our Customer Service Desk on 0330 303 0119 For further advice, please contact Southern Water, Southern House, Yeoman Road, Worthing, West Sussex, BN13 3NX (Tel: 0330 303 0119)
  6. Note to Applicant: In accordance with paragraph 39 of the National Planning Policy Framework (December 2024), Eastleigh Borough Council takes a positive approach to the handling of development proposals so as to achieve, whenever possible, a positive outcome and to ensure all proposals are dealt with in a timely manner.
